or ups and downs, and am of the ground
liDgs;
For me there Is no pity and no trust.
/ cover and glide, with all serpents
craft,
Behind the merry bibbers toward the lunch,
But shallow, vain and dangerous is my
guile
The watchful Cerberus has following eyes,
And they are on me ever Even now
They seem to read my huDgering inner
thought
There's no recourse but in new fields OF
chance
III close my threadbare cov'rins and go
forth
From such inhospitable scene as this,
such parody on feed gratuitous,
And seek bar where Cerberus is tame.
